  1. Don't blame the rubber if you don't get enough spin.

    80 rev/sec is garbage and not pretty good.
  2. Anyone have a sneak peak of Glayzer yet?

    Hmm, maybe it works better with harder blades. Since the sponge is so soft the harder koto and outer carbon helps. But honestly, it didn't feel like I lack bottom plate strength with the W968, it's rare I find a rubber that works from close, where I can do continuous BH spinning and the rubber...
  3. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    I applaud the Chinese for finding these loopholes so they don't have to pay ITTF more money and of course, they don't burden us losers khm I mean users with said costs.
  4. Anyone have a sneak peak of Glayzer yet?

    I had the chance of finally trying out Glayzer and Glayzer 09c both in 2.1mm on my W968. I glued them on that blade since with Rozena and Tenergy I always felt they are more lively with innerforce type blades. I think I agree with the findings of most of the guys before me. Glayzer 09c I really...
  5. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    Maybe I wasn't clear, but I was only talking about the rubber topsheet. T05 (14-001) and T05FX (14-009) can be different since they have different approval codes. They can be the same too, and most likely they are the same, but it wouldn't violate the rules if they were different. On the...
  6. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    They look the same since DHS intends to make them the same. It's another question that they can't manufacture them consistently.
  7. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    Okay, I'm game. What is the absolute difference between H3 and H3 Neo topsheet?
  8. Life, Existence, and the Meaning of Long Pips - The Opus Maximus of James Z

    Hurricane 3 and Hurricane 3 Neo have different topsheets? The topic title is very misleading, it should just be "if you enter you will be lost". H3 and H3N have the same topsheet. I don't understand what James Z is about ITTF numbers and T05 and T05FX either... They have different numbers so...
  9. Post your latest EJ purchase

    I ordered a Lin Goayuan ALC with AN handle. It's "going out of print" and it's probably the most handsome among the Viscaria type blades. And of course anatomic handle is available unlike Vis or FZD ALC.
  10. pin yi pi shen rubber

    What's wrong igor? Why not be happy?
  11. Oh no! Zhang Jike in trouble?

    Since Butterfly ditched ZJK I think Gambler has a pretty decent opportunity to pick up ZJK to represent their company. It just makes sense.
  12. Anyone have a sneak peak of Glayzer yet?

    According to actual measurements D09c topsheet is 51deg shore C and the 44 deg spring sponge x is 49deg shore C. Closest thing to this is Bluegrip C1 with about 50deg on both topsheet and sponge and Omega 7 China Ying at 50-50deg too. So I would rate D09c at 60 deg on ESN scale. However, if...
  13. What’s NOT good with Rozena?

    This might be an unpopular opinion but recently I tried Rozena and MX-P on a hard stiff outer ALC blade and honestly they are very on par. I would probably take Rozena. G-1 is very similar too and I would most likely use Rozena and G-1 more on a inner carbon ALC blade, I think they would perform...
  14. Anyone have a sneak peak of Glayzer yet?

    G09c already looking faster and more dangerous than C48 on backhand... This doesn't look very good for ESN since C48 is more expensive even with discounts.
  15. Timo boll 30th anniversary contract edition (G-FLESS handle) limited edition gold tag

    Yeah, it's a bit dishonest in my opinion too especially since he pointed it out in some of his videos how Chinese rubbers are boosted etc. Maybe he forgot to mention he has a custom handle??? I guess after having that for years one can glide over that it's special. This handle thing is not even...
  16. Timo boll 30th anniversary contract edition (G-FLESS handle) limited edition gold tag

    This seems to be legit. I went back to the video where he glues his 6 new rackets. This is visible there as well. Now that I know where to look it's very obvious. Let's not be naive too much, sponsored players don't get the same Dignics or Tenergy or blades that are on the shelf.
  17. Timo boll 30th anniversary contract edition (G-FLESS handle) limited edition gold tag

    Butterfly adds an asterisk to their sticky rubbers that the surface "especially" around the Butterfly logo might look dim compared to the rest of the area so I wouldn't put much into Butterfly's asterisks. If their solution was crap they wouldn't sell it, this much we can trust Butterfly with...
  18. Oh no! Zhang Jike in trouble?

    All his fangirls can't pony up the money to make him even? Sounds weird.
  19. Anyone have a sneak peak of Glayzer yet?

    It's not impossible that here the official price of Rozena and Aibiss is higher than it should be. Anyways I have never ever seen anyone here play with Rozena besides myself. Tenergy and Dignics are very common, especially Tenergy but nothing else from BTY. Bryce, Roundell... nothing. Actually...
